2) the design must contain our club logo: link
3) the design must contain text "walking is so slow"

If you have any interesting/creative design, you can submit a softcopy to ben( chatter_ben@hotmail.com) by 25th July 2010.
All the submitted design will posted up and the one with the most "like" will be chosen as the final design.

PS: The printing and pricing will be decided later on. Design comes first.

Thanks.

Skate Class Open for Registration

2010-07-02T15:59:00.001+08:00

Hi skaters!

We had seen that most of the skaters really enjoy our 2 hours workshop provided by 12Skate, and the response is quite good, as a lot of skaters decided to continue the class to learn more advance technique.

Our classes will be started on next Wednesday (7th July), in FIT Atrium Ground floor.
HOWEVER, due to this overwhelmed response and limited instructors and skates, we had to set a limit for the number of seats in each classes.

There will be 2 sessions going on Wednesday: 8pm-9pm, and 9:30pm-10:30pm, skaters can choose to come on ONLY ONE session.

Maximum Number per class:
Each session will have maximum 25 students only. (Means, 25 students in 8-9pm, and 25 students in 9:30pm – 10:30pm) Sorry for any inconvenience.

Coaching fee:
A fee for this semester is RM25. So the total amount you need to pay is RM25 + RM12 (if you wish to rent skates for a month)

Skate Rental for class:
the skate rental is RM3 per session, but for convenience we will collect 1 month advance which is rm12 (4 times)
PS: a refund will be given back if you get your own skate in between the month. Skates can only use for 1 hour for each session.

Register:
For those who interested, please register your name by putting a comment in our Facebook discussion post, include:
- Your real name (not Facebook name)
- Student ID
- time slot you prefer. (8pm or 9:30pm)

(To prevent confusions, any people who leave their name and Id in this blog is not taken as registered. Please do it in Facebook only)

Only the first 25 people who register in each session will be accepted. Pay RM25 on the day you attend class.

Thank you all for the support of this sport!

One Crazy Act

2010-05-01T16:40:00.001+08:00

We human must have some crazy act in our life, small or big, memorable one.

25th April, V, Ben, and Meshaal, did one, by skating from Alamanda Putrajaya to MMU Cyberjaya.

Driving distance is about 20 minutes, but we spent 1 hour and 45 minutes, include wrong road.

The journey is not easy, because of the up and down terrain, and terrible road surface, but, we made it~ safely without injury!

Meshaal. This is his second time from Alamanda to Putrajaya.

Alamanda outside Cinema.

Start.

Stop at traffic light, and discussing the safest and shortest path.

Ben above highway.

Finally we back to MMU~

Caution:
The journey is not easy, please only do it with confident and some partners.

Putra Night Skate

2010-03-20T18:16:00.001+08:00

Some times ago, we went to Putrajaya challenge park, to “challenge” ourselves.

Among us, only Naz has real experience in this kind of terrain, so, quite a beginner session for us.

Putrajaya Skatepark, featuring Naz.

Warm up.

Start rolling.

Skatepark featuring Hong Kai.

Skatepark overview.

Some random skateboarder.

Naz with his happy face.

Felt down.

Looks like swimming pool.

Awesome air! You guess what’s next?

Don’t rude, skater.

Like reached Everest top on skates.

Ben doing “something” with Hong Kai.

V going down, scare scare.

Damn confident look.

Concentrate!

The tear from the fall.

Skating is fun.

Awesome fake jump.

Even faker!

Group photo before leaving.

One more!

Actually this session was first time for most of us, without much experience on this kind of surface. Speed is very fast when going downward, and require enough balancing skills to keep rolling.

However, no pain no gain, nice try guys!

shop name:Wheel love Enterprise
venue: 28, Subang Jaya ss15/4 (near where Ben stays)
Boss name: Su Keats

this place sells lots of hand made T-shirts, skateboards, agro skates, recreational skates, snacks(mamee monster...) and MANY MORE.
BTW the best part of this shop is the main door is at the side... so try not to go upstairs to find the shop.

for more info you can visit the website: http://shop.wl33.com/

Our new acquaintance

2010-01-29T01:19:00.006+08:00

After skating for a few years in the "dark", a light is going to shine upon us...
=Skip the long winding=

Ben somehow manage to know a guy(aka ccSiang) from a forum, who somehow know a honorable friend (aka ken soo), who wants to form a team for Malaysia.

the team will be consist of 2 types of skaters: slalomer and slider.

After several meet ups, Ken has promise to borrow us some skates (various size) and some other equipment(s) to help us in our beloved and UNOFFICIAL club, do not have to borrow newbies our beloved/expensive skates (esp V). Ken is also willing to talk to our MMU sports division and HOPEFULLY this time WE CAN BE OFFICIAL~!!!!!!

Furthermore to enhance our skill of slaloming/sliding/skating, Ken is also bringing honorable professional skaters all the way from Singapore to support us. (how cool is that?)

There are more cool stuff(s) but yet to be announce...

Ken's greatest hope is to increase skaters/slalomers/sliders in Malaysia and hope that we as Malaysia can appear in the Slalom competition in August at Korea.

you guys can visit this website for more info: http://www.worldslalomseries.com/

Currently now our clubs got only 3 slalomers and 1 slider, hope in the near future more will emerge......

PS: sorry no picture to show Ken face...

TerryFox Run 2009

2009-10-27T02:22:00.002+08:00

Intro:
Terry Fox knew personally, the importance of the need for cancer research. At the age of 18, he was told that his right leg had to be amputated above the knee as a result of bone cancer. During this crucial period, Terry saw the intense pain and despair of other cancer victims and was deeply moved. In order to raise funds for cancer research, he decided to run across Canada asking for donations. This became ‘The Marathon of Hope’?. Terry Fox died before he could complete his crusade, but his legacy is carried in the hearts of all who participate or donate to the Terry Fox Run each year around the world.

Its just been 3 weeks since MMU re-opens...
skaters.. WHERE ARE YOU?

only 7 skaters came... SW, HM, BN, CS, WS, ZM,HK...

it is just our T shirt invert colors and add words...

Skating is back in MMU for this semester~

The End of 2008

2009-01-07T08:59:00.005+08:00

On 22 June 2008, MMU Skate Club just starts by having 8 members. As the semester goes, skate club becomes more and more big. With the help of promotion skater for Green Club and GDC on the 2nd week of second semester in MMU, skate club has grown bigger by adding new international skaters and a coach. The compound we normally skate, FIT Atrium usually we having problems from the guards but thank to Vzai, the president we can skate at FIT Atrium LEGALLY.

Although we have some skaters are MIA-ing but we still have a lot of active skaters. We also join a lot of skate event organized by Skateline and we even create our own “Sunday Night Skate” and have 1 “Friday Night Skate”. Some of the skaters also meet the best slalomers in the world by just joining the event organized by Skateline.

At 31 December 2008, MMU skate club has grown from 8 members to 25 members. 2009, Skate Club will still going to grow bigger and bigger.

Congratulation!!!
Tahniah!!!
恭喜!!!
Omedetoh!!!

Although some of the skaters miss the photoshoot but......we still have a lot of skater to attend the photoshoot !!!

oh...nearly forget about this. We also created our Skate Club slogan : "Screw you" which we will hear everytime we skate.

Giant Size and Tank Shaped Skate

2008-12-23T17:36:00.002+08:00

We know that skates have many types like slalom, aggressive, speed and many more. But do anyone saw this kind of skate before?? Big Khai Wen who attended the "comic fiesta" , took the photos of the cosplayer and personally talk to the cosplayer.

The cosplayer is cosplaying "Fat Buccha" from "Air Gear". Those who have watch this anime should know his size and shape of the skate. His skates are cover with boxes that is the shape of a tank.

Here are the only pictures Big Khai Wen get.

He looks fierce...

Once in a Life Time SNS Putrajaya

2008-12-23T17:10:00.001+08:00

No joke, this is one in a life time opportunity for skating!

Ever imagine all the best of the best slalomer from the world gather together, in Malaysia, to perform slalom?

Watch this video first if you don't know what is slalom.

(this is the demo by Swan in Seba team, at One Utama, day before SNS)

We just had the opportunity, thanks to Skateline.

During the Saturday Night Skates, it was raining, heavily. But our passion towards this SNS is so strong, and believe that we will find a dry place in Putrajaya to skate.

And thanks Skateline again who found a shaded and skateable tunnel.

Gearing up.

Do I mention that most of us from MMU wearing red shirts, with santa hat?

Here come the best of the night:

Slalomer from Germany, France, UK, Singapore, etc was there with us, performing slalom tricks, and is the first LIVE slalom demo we ever see in Malaysia with our own eyes.

They are Chloe, Greg, Terence, Swan, Rudy, Igor, Georgior, and Sebastian!!!!! All from SEBA team.

Terence was teaching us basic tricks. We received some tips from them, and it works~

MMU skaters with Sebastian, team manager of SEBA slalom team. (find the tallest guy with white shirt standing in middle without skate, and long long hair~)

Sue Ern getting autograph from Sebastian~

Signed by Seba! And also other slalomers!

It's a very nice experience, and don't think we will have second one in our life.

Skate rocks!

T-shirt

2008-12-23T11:27:00.001+08:00

New Fare~

2008-11-29T17:47:00.001+08:00

We know that skating is cheap transport, who don't need petrol to power it, and we can skate everywhere we like, free.

This doesn't goes with car. Drivers who always fetch us to Putrajaya, to SNS in KL areas, their cars need petrol, need tolls charge, need maintenance etc.

So here is a new simple rule, to appreciate the driver's effort.

Effective immediately, for every skating event to Putrajaya Boulevard, skaters will be paying RM1 to drivers; while for SNS which not in Putrajaya (Titiwangsa, Lake Garden etc), skaters shall pay RM3 to drivers.

Thanks, we will hope one day, car can run without petrol, haha!

Skate on!

New Skater and Old Skater

2008-09-16T16:24:00.001+08:00

Yesterday came a new skater, Kok Full, and an Old Skater, who MIA for the whole semester, CK. We almost forgot your face lo!

Hihi Kok Full~ (He has the fast learning ability like Big Khai Wen)

This is CK, lost and found after 1 semester. Unofficially, he owed all of us 24 cups of Chinese Tea Ice.

As some members are having exams and rushing assignment, so some didn't show up. But we still have a lot skaters there.

Beside normal skating and slalom, we tried sliding. It's cool!

Sara's parallel slide, very nice.(at least during shuttle moment, haha)

Hao Ming parallel slide, not bad too.

Here share an inline freestyle sliding clip from Korea, enjoy~

Yer~~ Why you throw ball at me?

Caution: please stay at home after 10pm, monster around.

tired la... I want food!

Final exam is coming soon, good luck!

2008-09-14T10:51:00.001+08:00

8 persons of us (without Li Xuan, pity little sick girl, you miss a good skates~).

Meeting at Skateline Damansara, with some talking and chit chat. Hao Ming has his new wheels, his old wheels already flatted till the inner plastic. Sara has her brake pad removed, means another freestyle skater coming~

We found one interesting knowledge:

ABEC is a standard for bearing, the spinning device of a skate, higher the rating, less energy required to spin the same quantity of rounds. Most skates come with ABEC 3, 5 and 7. Impressive?

As usual, we reached our SNS destination, and start off our journey with lucky draws. Guess what?

All 3 lucky draws were won by MMU skaters! Yahoo!

Congratulation to Seaw Wei, V, and Hao Ming~

New wheels, fuyoh!

"Fast fast, we want skate!"

"I dodge!" Useless la, my camera faster.

Big Khai Wen

"Exhausted? Drink 100 Plus like me." - (100Plus is not our Skate Club sponsor)

"Come chase me~"

Sara - "I am hungry~" (she is fasting, sorry for her first meal of her day delayed)

Ballet? Don't know, it just look funny.

Dinner time (although most recognize as supper time)

Typical skaters bonnet.

MMU Skaters rocks~

wtf?

It's night before Mid Autumn Festival, can see a lot of families playing around in the park. Kids holding lanterns, parents chit chat, couples too. A very happening and nice place to skate.

The moon is almost full, and "theoretically" it will be very round tonight. Wish everyone a Happy and peaceful Mid Autumn Festival! (or Mooncake festival, whatever you call it)

Skateline turned 3 years old on Saturday. Happy Birthday Skateline!!! And what better way to celebrate it? Have an SNS party of cause!! Woo hoo!!!

7 of us wanted to go, but too bad, because of Xuan Hao's tragic accident, only one car was available and we had to sacrifice Hao Ming. Nevertheless, we still sent 6 representatives to this not-to-be-missed event.

So 6 of us, Su, Ben, Eng Soon, Chris, Vincent and Big Khai Wen went to Skateline TTDI to meet up. The venue for this SNS was TTDI, and about 20 or more skaters came. Oh yea, did I mention that it was Eng Soon's, Chris', Vincent's and Big Khai Wen's first SNS? Congratulations!!

Pre-skate Briefing

After the short pre-skate briefing, it was time to skate!! Hell yea!! Most of TTDI's terrain is flat, but there are still some small slopes. Kudos to the 4 newbies for not breaking any bones!! :P

Chris, Vincent and Big Khai Wen going downhill!!

Ben posing....Haizz....

Group picture

Oh yea, we had winners for the lucky draw too!!! Yup, 'winners' with the 's'.

Su, 3rd prize winner

Big Khai Wen, 2nd prize winner

Too bad we didn't get the first prize, but anyway, thank you Skateline!! MMU Skate Club rocks!!!

Free drinks and food were served, so we ate and we drank....then we went Cineleisure to watch a movie, reached back home about 3am. It sure was a hell of a night!!

Did you know? #1

2008-07-22T16:45:00.002+08:00

Skating from MMU Cyberjaya to Old Town Cyberjaya requires only 6 minutes or lesser.

Moral of this post: Since driving requires 3 minutes (including traffic light waiting + bonnet checking at MMU guard post + consume petrol), and walking requires 25 minutes, so, SKATE LA!

SUNS @ Putrajaya

2008-07-21T17:44:00.002+08:00

20th July, we successfully skated at Putrajaya with some new members, say yahoo!

Compared to our usual location at FIT atrium, which is flat, safe, and BORING, Putrajaya combines flat + little slops + little stairs + little steps + little traffic + little grass = perfect!

Yo!

Mosque.

Another peaceful SNS @ Desa Park City

2008-07-20T10:26:00.002+08:00

Woo~ Another peaceful Saturday Night Skate at Desa Park City!

How is the place?
Em, the second best place after Putrajaya, with quite smooth pedestrian path, clean, low traffic, and 7 Eleven.

Desa Park City is actually a very high class residential area, with a lot of security guards and their own shopping complex in their area.

We skated 3 rounds around the area, where 1 round is about 3.5km, so total is 10.5km, but don't feel tired, walking is so slow!

Desa Park City entrance.

Starting point: Desa Park's own private shopping complex.

Steven is picking lucky draw number from Steve.

Pre skate (Ignore the butt behind).

Few young and cute skaters! But beware, they are damn fast and confident!

What the...

Yeng.

Small group photo.

Xuan Hao killed by a Jedi skater.

Finished 2nd round, 3rd round to go soon!

After the skate, we had our dinner (or supper) at McD, The Curve. A satisfied day.

SNS, or Saturday Night Skate, is a monthly skate event organized by Skateline, where everyone with skates can participate. SNS venues will be in urban areas all around KL (or Penang, by Skateline Penang). Every skate will be lead by professional Skateline skaters who will control the traffic for road crossing and so on.

Lastly, guess who is this? I don't know...

New Member-to-be?

2008-07-01T17:37:00.001+08:00

Since telling everyone "tonight got skate", "tonight no skate" is very *expensive*, we decided to make every Monday night as our skating time, venue FIT, 9pm, unless told otherwise.

Yesterday few new guys came and tried out the *feel* of inline skating, and surprised they're not bad~

Welcome Sue Ern, Li Xuan, Eng Soon, enjoy skating.

ATTN: We will be having Skates shopping at Skateline on 12th July, anyone interested please inform us at v.handed [at] gmail [dot] com.

To cheer up all you new skaters who don't feel confident, here's a site about first time skating experiences of current smooth skaters. One thing's for sure, every time you put on your skates, you will feel some improvement~

FAQ

2008-06-22T23:13:00.001+08:00

Q: Why skate?
A: Skating is fun, fast, looks cool, and less tiring. Besides, it can be a good sport for body shaping. (some take it as a sport with their girl/boyfriend, haha)

Q: Where to buy skates?
A: Can be bought from Skateline. Skateline is Malaysia's largest skate retail shop, located at TTDI Damansara, Sungei Wang Roller Sports World, and Penang Queensbay Mall Roller Sports World.

Q: What is the price range of skates?
A: The price range is in between RM250 to RM1500 and above. Depends on the material and type of skates.

Q: How many types of skates?
A: There're about 5 types of skates: Recreational, Freestyle, Aggressive, Speed, and Hockey. Usually beginners start with recreational skates, which is enough for normal skating and light jumping, and also less burden for the wallet.

Q: What is the difference between these types?
A: Below answers some differences about these types:

Recreational Skates
Most widely used type, which is the "average" skates that can perform most movements. Wheel size is between 76mm to 82mm diameter.

Freestyle
Micro tune of Recreational skates, which have shorter wheel frame for high flexibility and tougher body structure to support the ankle. Using about the same wheel size like recreational skates, but less speed and stability due to shorter frame. Frames usually come in metal, and its main purpose is jumping around like monkey and slaloming (Slalom is an art of skating through cones with style).

Aggressive
This skate is mainly for aggressive stunts like grinding and half-pipe flips. Very tough body structure, small wheels about 50mm to 60mm diameter, high stability, but slow. Most contain very wide base for grinding.

Speed
Easily recognized with very big wheels (above 100mm) and very long frame. Usually comes with very efficient bearings, and the maximum speed can achieve car speed. Usually comes with 4 or 5 wheels.

Hockey Skates
From the name, yes, it's for inline hockey. This skate has similar properties like freestyle skates, except no tough boot structure. The whole boot structure is made of leather (lighter), and tightened with shoelace for support.

Q: How to buy skates?
A: Beginners are encouraged to get recreational skates, which is cheaper and flexible. Get the one that just fits your leg, as later on, the skates will adapt to your leg and feels comfortable. From other professional recommendations, comfort is the primary factor when buying skates.

Any other questions?
Just leave a comment, we will help to answer it.

We all know that a Skate Club in MMU is highly demanded by students, but we still can't form the club.

The "reason" from the sports department is "not everyone can skate".

So for the last few months, we are trying to increase our members and their skills to prove that with training, everyone can skate.

Now we have 8 members WITH their own skates, and increasing. And when it reaches 15, we will resubmit the proposal. yahoo~

Current members are:
1. V
2. Hao
3. Su
4. Ben
5. Kok
6. Xuan Hao
7. CK
8. Eddy

and few more coming in, soon.

Anyone interested to join us? Please leave us a comment.
